The office terminology of the day is...

SEAGULL MANAGER
A manager who flies in, makes a lot of noise, craps on
everything, and then leaves.

ASSMOSIS

advancement by sucking up to the boss rather than
working hard.

Hope it´s useful!

Lucia

Today is the 13/12, in Sweden the Lucia day. We celebrate Lucia with lots of lighted candles, beautiful songs and nice saffron buns. Lucia was the name of an Italian saint. When celebrated in Sweden Lucia is dressed in a white dress with a red ribbon around her waist, symbolising the blood of Christ, and with a crown of burning candles on her head. The tradition is very beautiful and it is, as so many old traditions, a pagan tradition assimilated by the Christian church.

The office terminology of the day is...

TESTICULATING
Waving your arms around and talking Bollocks.

BLAMESTORMING
Sitting around in a group, discussing why a deadline
was missed or a project failed, and who was
responsible.

Can it be utilised in some meetings?
